Balik Pulau DURIAN

Balik Pulau Durian is famous in Penang. For durian lovers, none of them will miss any opportunity to eat Balik Pulau durian.

Balik Pulau Durian produces high quality of durian, this is because these durian trees are old, which produce a strong and long lasting smell durian...

There are few places where one can get Balik Pulau Durian easily, one of the place is in Bayan Baru Sunshine market.

You can't believe that this is the durian i get from sunshine market.This is the biggest durian i've ever seen. This durian is medium in size, therefore, the ratio is big, as the durian flesh is super thick...!! It's not expensive, from Rm 4 to Rm 7, depending on the size and grade of the durian.

for durian lover, cost is not the issue anyway.

as big as my palm

Now, the question comes, why do i suggest everybody go to sunshine market to buy durian?

The durian seller is a man who is working for a drink stall in the sunshine market. At the same time, he has a stall selling durian. His wife is handicapped, sitting on wheel chair selling keropok beside the durian. This couple perserves although life is tough. This is the spirit i can see through them.

They work from morning to night, just to earn a living. Life is not easy, and they have an old mother to take care of, currently having a stroke and need money for the medical expenses.

I believe many of us are having better financial situation and working environment. But, we keep complaining of what we are having now, the grass at the other side always look more green.

Please support the couple by buying the durian...You will be touched by their spirit!
